Paige is a dedicated educator of young children and a passionate advocate for the Montessori method. She has a particular interest in the movement within Montessori communities towards confronting bias, prioritizing anti-racism work, and working towards equity. Paige loves seeing how so much of Dr. Montessori’s work is now being affirmed within the current research in developmental psychology, neuroscience, and education.
In her free time, Paige enjoys making time for physical activity, especially in nature, and spending time with her three young children, who also attend CMS.
